Jeopardydd Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 This needs to be fixed. There are some people who move out of the starting area to some hidden, out-of-the way area and just sit there afk, to get experience. It ruins the match for everybody else because the side with the afk-er is outnumbered for the entire match. There are people doing this all day, every day. Please, Bioware, do something about this!

SunwindIon Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 No one could have predicted this! it's like it hasn't happened before! blizz dealt with this nicely by putting a debuff on you if you don't get in combat after a few minutes which gives you no rewards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChicksDigHarleys Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 (edited) This is what happens when you reward this instanced WZ crapola over objective based world PvP. There should probably be some check that if you receive/inflict no damage, or heal no one, that you get no reward, and/or if you you stay in one spot without moving at least a few meters (to prevent afk running into a wall) that you get kicked from the WZ. It ruins the match for everybody else because the side with the afk-er is outnumbered for the entire match. So only one side does it? Ban Hammer imo LOL not bloody likely.

LOL not bloody likely. never said that only one side does it. but in any match where there are not exactly the same amount of people doing it on both sides, it severely unbalances the match.

renegadeimp Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 Report it ingame via a ticket guys. Then head to the general discussion forums and create a well thought out thread detailing how you think it should be handled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drachyn Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 That same player Carinne is still doing that. He's been reported so many times and everyone knows him by name and half the people leave the warfront when they see he's in it. He always hides in the same place, so I almost want to make an imperial on the server so I can go look for him in each warzone and get him kicked back to the start zone over and over again.

Those are good recommendations. Also, there should be no rewards for losing. So the teams with many AFKers will start losing a lot, and when they get no points, they'll move to exploit something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ObiQuixote Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 I love the cut scenes but this made me lol. The more I think about it I don't think there's any issue with the game that couldn't be solved with some additional cut scenes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zynellan Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 On a low pop faction, mostly republic, there only needs to be a few afkers queuing to ruin most players pvp game after game. Not many others are queuing so chances of getting an afk are high, and a stacked match results. This needs to be fixed quick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
